The time/build code in the upper right corner of your trim tag gives you the date the tag was attached.
ChopperBob: you could begin with the DMV of the state where the car was last titled when you knew it and try a title search. You may get some clues, although the DMV will be limited to what they can tell you.

No surprise the price is high...the place in Indiana PA selling it plays the game always...and doesn't barely know how to work on them. I asked them if they knew someone who could do a full alignment, and they couldn't tell me. How you can you be in the Corvette business and not know that?
